About the Item

Early 20th Century Baluch Tribal Area Rug. Baluch rugs, woven by nomadic tribes across regions of Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Iran, are celebrated for their distinctive tribal motifs, earthy palettes, and heartfelt craftsmanship, often incorporating elements reminiscent of neighboring weaving traditions. This captivating rug features a striking prayer pattern, immediately setting it apart. What makes this particular Baluch rug exceptionally rare and desirable is its infrequently found ivory color background. This light, luminous field provides a beautiful canvas for the rug's intricate details and adds a unique brightness not typically seen in Baluch weavings. The rug is beautifully framed by a border with unique colors and geometric designs throughout, rendered in harmonious shades of deep navy blue, warm brown, and creamy ivory. These geometric motifs, especially in the border, bear a captivating similarity to some of the tribal area rugs originating from the Southern Caucasus region, suggesting a cross-cultural influence that adds to this piece's intrigue. Handwoven with natural dyes, this vintage Baluch tribal rug is a testament to authentic nomadic artistry. Its robust construction and timeless design make it not only a beautiful decorative piece but also a durable and functional addition to any home.
